MN (M = Be, Mg, and Pt) represents a new class of van der Waals materials. These materials are characterized by exceptional electrical and thermal conductivities, remarkable intralayer mechanical strength, and weak interlayer interactions, making them prone to shearing and slipping. Therefore, MN has significant potential applications as a solid lubricant.

To study the effects that the perennial freeze-thaw environment exerts on the dynamic mechanical properties of marble, which characterizes the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, impact tests were conducted, and saturated marble was utilized; thus, we analyzed the effect of different loading rates on its dynamic compressive strength, fragmentation pattern, and energy-absorbing density. The results indicate the following: (1) When 42.02s-1 ≤[Formula: see text]≤ 49.
